Abstract
According to the invention, a web of material presenting periodic string parts is provided with garnishing material by forming loops of garnishing material around the net yarn, and subsequently fastening the loops together by applying high frequency energy. This is effected in an automatic machine in which string parts together with accompanying garnishing are inserted into apertures formed on a drum by means of electrodes which are mutually separated during the process of insertion and which are then clamped together and supplied with high frequency energy, whereafter the electrodes are again separated to release the string material and garnishing.
